Journey to the witch world

"With this kind of energy intensity, it looks like it's at least an intermediate level magic item."

Enzo played with the silver ring in his hand, feeling the energy fluctuations emanating from it, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I never thought that an investigation mission would yield such unexpected results!"

It goes without saying that the preciousness of magical items is self-evident, and they are often expensive but not marketable. No matter how much magic stones are spent, they cannot be bought. After all, for wizard apprentices, this kind of thing is almost a life-saving trump card. Naturally, no one wants it. Sold.

"Chip, check!" Enzo ordered in his mind.

"Ding! Item: Ring of Holy Light (Advanced Demonized Item)/Status: Damaged/Introduction: An advanced demonized item whose main body is refined from mithril. It contains a variety of high-energy runes, but due to unknown reasons, the internal When the energy array is damaged, the user injects magic power to release light particle energy, which can cause extremely high damage to undead and dark creatures."

"It turned out to be a high-level demonized item!" Enzo's pupils shrank, a little surprised.

The levels of magic items are divided into three levels: low, medium and high. Low-level magic items are the most common and can be made by some wizard apprentices who are proficient in alchemy. Intermediate level magic items are relatively rare. To make them, you need to be at least formal. Just a wizard.

An intermediate level magic item is worth the entire net worth of an ordinary third-level apprentice.

As for high-level magic items, they are no longer available to apprentices. Generally, only formal wizards who have condensed magic crystals are qualified to use them.

"Unfortunately, the internal energy array of this Ring of Holy Light is damaged, and now it can only exert the power of an intermediate demonized item."

Enzo felt a little regretful. If he could possess a complete high-level demonized item, his strength would be comparable to that of a third-level apprentice, and he would even have the ability to save his life in front of a formal wizard.

"Chip, can you try to repair the Ring of Holy Light?" Enzo asked in his mind.

"Ding! There is insufficient data and insufficient energy during the task establishment. The probability of success in repairing the Ring of Holy Light is 8%. If it fails, the Ring of Holy Light will be completely damaged and cannot be used."

The mechanical voice answered, and Enzo had a wry smile on his face.

"Sure enough, it won't work. The energy array inside the high-level magic item is too complicated. If the chip is forcibly repaired, the probability of success is less than 10%, and the magic item will be completely destroyed."

"Forget it, let's wait until we get back to the academy to think of a solution." Shaking his head, Enzo put the Ring of Holy Light on his little finger.

At this time, a wave of magic power came from the forest not far away.

"Is someone coming?" Enzo's eyes flashed, he waved his hand to clean up the footprints on the ground, and then quickly dodged between the trees and left in the distance.

A moment later, a figure covered in black robes appeared in the open space.

"Is he already dead?" Olandon lifted the hood of his black robe, stepped forward, leaned down, and looked at Ilenv's cold body on the ground.

"Huh! This trouble is finally solved." Olandon smiled slightly, but frowned as he got closer.

"Where's that magical item? Why is it missing?"

Reaching out to inspect the body, Olandon was a little confused.

"Didn't he bring it with him? That shouldn't be the case. That magical item is the family secret treasure of Ilenfu. Even if he can't use the power in it, he should still carry it with him."

After confirming that there was nothing he was looking for on Elenf's body, Oranton's face turned gloomy.

"Damn it! Did you really hide it?" He stood up, waved a wave of black flames and burned Ilenfu's body, leaving not even a trace of flesh and blood, and shook his head.

"Forget it, it's just an intermediate magic item anyway. It won't mean much when I am promoted to an official wizard."

"The most important thing now is to find a way to send Enzo away first. Only when he leaves Snow Hoof City can my plan continue!"

In the woods, Enzo kept walking towards Giethoorn.

His movements were light, and every time his feet landed on a stable area, he was not affected by the branches at all even if it was dark around him.

"We're here." Enzo stopped walking as his feet landed.

Ahead, the lifeless village of Giethoorn was shrouded in darkness.

Having already been here once during the day, Enzo was very familiar with the surrounding environment. He looked at the dark abandoned village ahead and walked straight in.

"The previous fire should have covered up all traces."

As he walked towards the village, Enzo thought with his eyes and murmured, "I didn't find any useful information during the day's investigation, but there is one place I haven't looked at carefully."

Following the direction in his memory, Enzo came to a tower.

The tower built of gray stone was covered with a layer of ash after being burned by the fire.

When he came to Giethoorn to investigate during the day, Enzo noticed something unusual here, but was interrupted by the cavalry's discovery of the tungsten energy stone, so he left before he could take a closer look.

"It has survived the fire but it has survived. Moreover, the chip has previously detected that undead have haunted this place. I just don't know what is inside."

Enzo stroked his chin and walked towards the entrance of the tower.

"Huh? It's locked." The dark iron door was closed tightly. Enzo looked at it and found that what was hanging on it was just an ordinary copper lock. It seemed that any knight could cut it open with a single sword.

"If only an ordinary copper lock is left, is it necessary to close the door here?" Enzo narrowed his eyes and ordered in his heart: "Chip, check it."

"Ding! Detect the target copper lock and find slight radiation energy. If it is forcibly destroyed, it will produce magic fluctuations."

The answer given by the chip made Enzo's eyes gleam.

"Slightly radiating energy? Is it some kind of rune?" He frowned slightly and thought, "Olandon left a copper lock and set runes on it. If someone wants to enter the tower, he will be able to detect it immediately!"

"Is the secret really hidden here?"

Enzo's eyes flashed and he murmured, "If this is the case, I'd better not alert the enemy yet."

Snowhoof City, Castle.

In a luxurious room, a sleeping girl was lying on a soft bed. The window suddenly opened a gap, and a figure squeezed in with a light movement.

Back in the room, Enzo glanced at Sheryl who was sleeping on the bed.

The girl who was affected by the sleepiness rune was sleeping deeply at this time and did not notice any movement in the room.

"We have almost collected the information, and the matter is very clear." Looking back, Enzo thought slightly.

"What happened in Giethoorn is most likely related to Oranton, and the Lord of Snowhoof City was silenced because he discovered his secret, and even implicated Ilenv."

Summarizing the information obtained in his mind, Enzo gradually deduced the true meaning of the matter.

"If Olandon is really seduced by the devil, then there will definitely be action next."

"But as a wizard apprentice, he must be afraid of the academy. He should not dare to take any action until I leave Snow Hoof City."

"Then, I will pretend that the mission is completed and leave Snowhoof City to lure Oranton into taking the next step!"
